Of his sermoaL by canS6 Fleming, Of York,

palmed of as one OF his own, was

as early as 1876, thus establishing its pri-
ority. 1t is not new thing, however, for
preachers to use the Doctors sermons, and
when there is no special claim Of author

Tho British Tar's Watches.

MI the world knows that u crew is divided
into halves in order to take the ships work in
turn, the starboar'l watch being distinguished
10y Il red stripe on the right shoulder the port
hy II strip" on the left. And it is known that
n sailor divides his time into four hour spells
from midnight to noon, and into II four hour
spell, two two hour spells and q four hour
spell from noon to midnight, the snd dog
watrhes-cultailed watches, in fact-being
from to u and q to s. and serving to divide
the twcnty-four hours into an unequal num-
Der OF parts, and thus bring the same men OH
duty during the same hours only on alternate
nights. And there is no mystery about
bells, and we have shore clocks striking
bells, one for every half hour in the watch,
eight bells" going at noon, midnight, S
o'clock and o'clock.
But 1T may not perhaps be generally known
that every seaman has number, and that all
odd numbers belong to tho starboard watch:
when hammocks are slung at night they arc
i'll numerical order, lightning at the bow and
running athwart the ship, so that when q
watch Is on deck every other hammock is
empty, that when all hands are called the
starhparI watch work the starboarl side of
the ship, The port watch the port side and
that when one watch only is on deck its two
divisions take the opposite sides And it is
certainly not matter of common knowledge
that on n man of war the calls, military and
disciplinary, are nearly all given by bugle,
and that there are forty-four of such calls,
the pipe being almost entirely confined to sea-
manship matters, and the drum that used to
beat to4uartcrs" having sunk in most ships

nftcrward. 1t is rather strange whim of
fate that tho name Of so brave and accom-
plished general es William Henry French
should be so little known to his countrymen.
Some of tho bloodiest fighting of this or
any war was done by his and Hancock's divi
sions that day at Fredericksburg. They lost
fully twotifths of their men.
w. II. French was born in MARYLAND in
1873 He was graduate of West Point. and
fought i'll the Indian war in Florida in 1857
also Vl tho Mexican war. He was first in
command ut Key West during the civil way,
but was transferred to the Army OF tho Poto.
mac. He became II ma jor general of vo.un-
tcers in 1862 After the war lie was in tho
artillery service on tho Pacific coast. Gen.
French died in 1881.
As the fog lifted in the course of the fore.
noon l.ongstreet beheld from the heights of
Marye's hill French and Hancock advancing
in two columns to the assault. They came bv
two parallel roads, the Orange plank road
an, and Il the S;gp ;Islegraph road. The Telegraph road
deep ravinc separated tho advancing
troops from the foot of Alaryc's hill. The
Telegraph road skirted along the foot of
Marye's hill The road, indeed, had been cut
out of the hills side and was twenty-five feet
wide. On one side of it was the hill, upon the
otlSr high stone wall had been built This
wall was as high rs 4 mans shoulders.
